    That one reminds me of rolling in to Aspen in 1973 after 3 days in a pup tent eating canned bread. But that's just me. Commercials that end with someone talking REAL fast piss me off. And pop ups.

    Any of these prescription drug commercials. "Talk to your doctor about XXX drug" No, that's your doctor's job, to talk to you about drugs, fatso.

    Love that all the drug ads state you are not to take them if you are allergic to the drug name (and sometimes they add or the some of the ingredients or additives or generic name etc.). Who would know they are allergic to something unless they have taken the drug before?

    Ooh, ooh, ditto. I like him a lot (check out Chris Rock's opening monologue at the Oscars this year) but I just want to slap that family around every time I see them. Especially the father.

    Almost all of the latest Chevy commercials.

    Every time I see a Cruze, I think, wow, that Neon is in great shape, for it's age.

    Now that I pretty much only watch tv via Netflix, I never see commercials anymore. Bliss.

    And my kiddo isn't as blatantly pandered to with crass commercialism. My childhood was filled with ads and jingles in my head, hers isn't (as much).

    More of a radio spot but they're fucking on all the time: The 1-800-GOT-JUNK commercials. If I ever need junk hauled away I'm going to call them and punch em in the nuts.
    I still call it The Jake.

    Right? That and the DVR, besides not having to live by a content schedule any more, it's great being able to fast forward through that shit.

    "Shake and Bake, and I helped"

    Has a new meaning now that makes me laugh, but I hated it back then...

    That
    Xifaxan commercial is a joke. Took that stuff 3 years for my liver. $980 for a 30 day supply and most insurance will not cover it. They do not make a generic.

    Add this to the list (yes another drug one and as earlier pointed out they all should be banned). I hate that they took a song I like and associated with the ridiculous nature of the ad.

    Bankruptcy Law Center - put an end to all those harassing phone calls - cuz you'll be way better off if you file for bankruptcy than if you're, y'know, actually responsible with your money
    Ovation cell therapy hair products - for longer, thicker stronger hair, since apparently hair breakage is a thing?

    The only thing worse is when the DJs try to work promotion of some product or business casually into their conversation.

    The one ad that had been on that was entertaining, was for some weight loss product - you're not fat, you're just bloated. All that toxic sludge and undigested food in your system is giving you pot belly.

    Speaking of feet (Shit that Annoys You thread). Thank goodness this ad is no longer playing. Used to give me the willies.
